编辑同志:我女儿今年15周岁,现在读初三。她从小就对学习毫无兴趣,但却是块做生意的料儿。鉴于这种情况,我们家里人经过慎重考虑,并征得了她本人同意,决定给她办个个体营业执照,让她弃学从商。可是,当我们到本地工商所申请办理个体营业执照时,工商所的工作人员答复说不能办理,理由是我女儿未满16周岁。请问:未满16周岁的未成年人能从事个体经营活动吗? Editor’s Comrade: My daughter is 15 years old this year and is now in her third year of study. She had no interest in learning since childhood, but she was a blockbuster business. In view of this situation, our family members after careful consideration, and with her own consent, decided to give her an individual business license, let her give up business. However, when we applied for an individual business license at a local industrial and commercial department, the staff of the industrial and commercial department replied that they could not handle the case because my daughter was under 16 years of age. I ask: minors under the age of 16 can engage in self-employed activities do?
